That's funny.  There's a Mt. Vernon 20 miles from where I live.

Yeah, its named after the real Mt. Vernon.

There isn’t even a mountain at Washington’s Mt Vernon. It’s next to the Potomac. Must be a Virginia thing.

Its more like a hill.

Please share.   Being from the upper mid-west, my perception of the east is that the country is non-existent west of the Mississippi River

That's essentially what the map shows!  I'll see if I can find it online.  It's pretty funny.

I found one but this is not the one I'm thinking of.  But funny nonetheless.  https://www.funnyordie.com/2011/7/12/17739382/the-map-of-america-as-seen-by-a-new-yorker

Totally inaccurate and unfair.

 

Nothing exists west of Pennsylvania.

I guess this means you wouldn't be amenable to relocating if we can't resolve which one is the real Washington.  I was going to propose we split the difference and place it somewhere around Oklahoma City.

Nooooooooo... not Oklahoma City.  I grew up in St. Louis and that was bad enough.

I was a little worried after posting it, seeing as where the Supersonics relocated and I didn't know if that was a bad memory for you.

It was a bad memory but at least now we have the Seattle Kraken.

I'm a transplant with no allegiance to the Washington Football Team.  I'm okay with shipping them off to Siberia, like you suggest.

Drop the ‘Football team.’ Just...’Washington.’ It’s clean.

Sales promotions.  Way back in 1985 it wasn't Chicago Bears it was 'Da Bears.    Then again if it's Detroit, it's just lame whatever it's called!

The Pistons is a great nickname! Perfect for the Motor City.

No Scott. And don’t ever mention such a foul name on this clean board. Lambeer!? Thomas?! Ugh.😉

      Tiger Woods Master Catch-All Discussion

      The best part was that he’s actually playing professional golf. Hovland got off to a poor start and got some catching up to do if he is to take three in a row.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By JetFan1983 ·

      32+ months now of regular exercise, and in April it will be five years on the keto diet. I’ve gone from 210 to 169 (I’m 6-0 tall) and I lost that weight over five years. I would consider myself a gym rat at this point. I make a point to get enough sleep and I make time for this whenever I can in my day. I rarely break a sweat when lifting, so this isn’t very high intensity but it still builds strength (for me). I try to do something active every day. Occasionally I’m too tired (like once every 9 days) and I take a day off. I try to go on walks daily as well. Post dinner selfie last night. Not bad for 40. My exercise plan is largely founded upon the fundamentals I learned in rehab from my past surgeries. It’s why I don’t push too hard in the gym. Just doing anything, and with good form, is enough for me to move the needle forward. I guess the only time I really sweat is on my peloton rides and I only do those once in a while.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By ChetlovesMer ·

      Day 4: 11/30/2023: Outdoor range again today. @klineka Yep, the Westerville one. There's also one with heaters in Dublin.  The Golf Center – SportsOhio So, today I did much the same as I did yesterday, only I did it a bit better yesterday.  Started out working on my priority pieces with the 6 iron. Then moved to the 9 iron, then the driver and finished with the 3 wood. After that "I played" the course that my tournament is held on every year. I did not do as well as yesterday. But I still feel as though my swing is in a descent place.

      Thank you. The support does help for sure and I feel as if rhe fitness part of my journey will only go so far if I keep up with the smoking. Congrats on your quitting!
